Raj Thackrey not amused with Shakti Kapoor and Siddharth Bhardwaj



The Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray has stated that the reality show Bigg Boss has insulted Marathi Manoos, with contestants Shakti Kapoor and Siddharth Bhardwaj nicknaming Housemate Amar Upadhyay as ‘P.K. Lele’, a Maharashtrian surname on the show.

In an episode telecast this weekend, Amar Upadhyay, on failing to successfully finish a task given by Bigg Boss, was deputed as a ‘personal servant’ for Shakti Kapoor and Siddharth Bhardwaj, who are seen to have a grudge and dislike for him on the show. After much deliberation, and coming up with funny names like ‘D.K. Bose’, Shakti and Siddharth mischievously named him ‘P.K. Lele’, with Shakti claiming that it was the name of a character he had played in one of his films starring Sanjay Dutt.

Speaking to reporters, MNS leader Raj Thackeray has demanded an immediate apology. “Kapoor and Bhardwaj should apologize to the Marathi-speaking population for the insult. Just because Lele is a Maharashtrian surname, does it mean all servants are Maharashtrians,” he questioned. “They (Kapoor and Bhardwaj) should apologize for the same within 24 hours or they will have to face the consequences,” he warned.
